This made the infantrymen think that the field artillery bombardment just now made the enemy flee in panic.
But in the trenches and foxholes, the soldiers of the cavalry regiment were waiting for the order to fire.
¡°Boom!!!¡±
The bomb planted in front of the position was detonated.
With the explosion, more than a dozen Japanese soldiers rushing forward were blown away in the blink of an eye. And behind the smoke, there were Japanese troops roaring and charging towards this side.
The moment the mines were detonated, the soldiers hiding in foxholes and trenches immediately poked out their guns and began shooting wildly at the charging Japanese troops.
"Da da da!!!"
The sound of machine gun fire instantly filled the entire battlefield. The Japanese troops rushing in the front row were defeated in large numbers almost in the blink of an eye.
The charging Japanese soldiers immediately crawled on the ground and began to crawl towards the position.
At the same time, the Japanese mortars and heavy machine guns in the rear also began to fire at the cavalry regiment's position.
After the Japanese troops and the cavalry regiments of the two mixed brigades exchanged fire, the Japanese cavalry regiments also began to attack.
Their cavalry quickly advanced towards this side, like long black dragons, stirring up smoke and dust on the vast grassland.
Beilun looked at the charging Japanese cavalry and immediately shouted: "Prepare the flamethrower, the heavy machine gun fires!!!"
The Japanese cavalry regiment was still more than three hundred meters away from their position, and the heavy machine guns had already begun to roar.
The firepower arrangement on the cavalry regiment's position focused on dealing with the two cavalry regiments. Because although they are smaller in number, their impact is more powerful.
The bullets from light and heavy machine guns and rifles hit the horses and the cavalry on them, and blood immediately sprayed out.
The neighing of the war horses and the screams of the cavalry were drowned in the dense gunfire and explosions. Amidst the rumble of horse hooves, a large number of cavalrymen of the Japanese cavalry regiment were knocked to the ground by intensive machine gun fire.
But this did not stop the Japanese cavalry from charging, they still roared forward.
At a distance of three hundred meters, it only took more than ten seconds for the war horse to charge, and it had already reached a range of less than a hundred meters.
Seeing this scene, Beilun immediately shouted: "Flame thrower!!"
With his roar, the soldiers who controlled the flamethrowers immediately pulled the switch and sprayed the flames directly.
More than a dozen flamethrowers were launched at the same time, and more than a dozen firepower spurted out directly, covering a width of nearly a hundred meters.
Those war horses rushed directly onto the flames, and some neighed tragically and fell directly to the ground. The Japanese cavalrymen on horseback fell to the ground, wrapped in burning flames, and let out bursts of screams. But such screams will soon stop abruptly.
Because behind him, a large number of Japanese cavalry would not stop advancing because of the presence of these fallen cavalry. They were still roaring and charging, and their raised horse hooves trampled all the fallen Japanese cavalry into pulp.
Under the scorching flames, a large number of Japanese cavalry fell to the ground. The hair of the war horses was ignited, and they ran around like flaming horses.
The smell of burnt human flesh and horse meat filled the air, mixed with the smell of blood, making people want to vomit when they smell it.
While the two sides were fighting fiercely here, on the outside of the display, tank regiments and motorized infantry regiments, as well as a large number of infantry in cars, had begun to advance towards the Japanese army at full speed.
¡°Call artillery support!!!¡± Beilun yelled on the walkie-talkie.
At this time, the howitzer regiment had already aimed its barrels at the Japanese army, and was just waiting for a signal from the front line.
Ye Fangxun, the leader of the howitzer regiment, heard the roar on the walkie-talkie and immediately shouted: "The entire regiment is firing!!"
With his roar, more than sixty large-caliber howitzers behind him began to roar.
¡°Boom!!!¡±
When the howitzers fired a salvo, a large amount of smoke and dust was immediately stirred up, and the loud noise made the ground beneath their feet seem to be shaking.
The moment these howitzers fired a salvo, a large number of artillery shells flew towards the battlefield twenty kilometers away.
The two Japanese brigade commanders, Edogawa Junpei and Nanno, followed. watchingThe infantry advancing past, as well as the cavalry units attacking from both sides, already had some confidence in their hearts.
"I think within an hour at most, a gap will be made in the enemy's defense line." Edogawa Junpei said confidently.
Minamino wiped his palms with a handkerchief, even though there was no dust on it, and said to Edogawa Junpei: "I think more than half an hour is enough. If it is said to be one hour, that is a conservative estimate."
While the two were bragging, the shells fired by the howitzer regiment had flown dozens of kilometers and hit the Japanese charging team.
A few seconds later, these shells landed on the battlefield.
Those Japanese cavalry who finally approached the cavalry regiment¡¯s position and planned to ride their horses directly over the barbed wire fence suddenly heard a roaring sound.
This sound is very familiar to them. It is the sound produced by cannonballs flying and rubbing the air.
Just when they were wondering where these sounds came from, shells landed directly in front of them.
The artillery scouts directly reported the coordinates of the area occupied by the Japanese attacking troops to the rear. This allows the howitzers at the rear to carry out precise bombardment.
These shells have a large caliber, all of which are 155mm high-explosive shells. The moment they hit the ground, they directly covered an area of ??nearly 100 meters in radius.
Dozens of artillery shells landed on the Japanese charging cavalry regiment at the same time, immediately covering this large area. The cavalry charging inside were all overturned or even torn apart by the powerful cannonballs.
Countless shrapnel and violent shock waves made it impossible for the Japanese cavalry at the center of the explosion to survive. The hundreds of cavalrymen they rushed forward were all killed in a single volley, and not even a single one survived.
These heavy artillery are not comparable to the mountain cannons equipped by the little devils. Their power is terrifying. When a high-explosive bomb explodes, within its killing range, no living thing can survive above the surface.
Also suffering heavy losses were the Japanese infantry units charging on the other side.
Their situation was similar to that of the cavalry regiment. Dozens of artillery shells landed, directly covering their charging area.
